It's painfully corny and forced. It's one thing to watch this show, I guess, but so many dorks are obsessed with it and claim to see all of this brilliance which is not there. This show would be 1000x better if it was a serious drama loosely based on the Murdocks. They did this satire/humor b.s. because the writers and producers are hacks with no depth.

| Was it ever explained how the old man hurt his ankle or foot? Was that from that long hike in the Hamptons? |
Model good looks? LOL. |
NP. Did you not watch Pride and Prejudice? He's very handsome. The geeky hairdo and demeanor are deliberate for this role. https://www.zimbio.com/Hot+Actors+Who+Are+Hotter+In+Costume/articles/bleN1qWGWtK/Matthew+Macfadyen+vs+Mr+Darcy+Pride+Prejudice |

I just caught up on episodes. So this is the right wing guy that Tom said he read mine come to more than once? Were there Easter Eggs in there you didn’t catch of the first time? This should be a good plot twist.
I missed Gerri this episode. Also, what is going on with Logan and his assistant? Are they dating or something? One recap I saw implied that. |

No--Tom was referring to one of their controversial (but popular) prime time anchors--obviously based on Tucker Carlson.
This is a fringe politician--who sounds like he's based on a hybrid of Tucker Carlson, Donald Trump...and Kris Kobach? |
| Was anyone else getting sexual tension between Roman and the alt-right politician Mencken? |
| What's up with their mother getting married to someone she has known for 40 years? Is the guy going to be someone's dad like Ken? |
How so? |
100000000% yes - that is def going somewhere |
I was picking up on that but my DH said no. |
I bet you have a higher EQ and better gaydar than your hubby. |
EQ definitely yes but I’ve always thought my gaydar was terrible. We’ll see. |
I also think we’ll see the mom’s “big Tuscan wedding” so that should be good. |
| In this season, the action is moving very slowly—feels like they are dragging it out to create more seasons. I’m invested in the characters and will keep watching. But for those new to the show, I can see why it feels meh. |
